Tomorrow one of the original members of Batman’s Bat-Family is striking out on their own with a new solo series. DC releases Red Hood #1 in comic book stores and digital platforms and today we’re taking a closer look with new preview pages.
This new series for Jason hails from writer Gretchen Felker-Martin (Poison Ivy), artist Jeffrey Spokes (Irredeemable) and letterer Becca Carrey (Radiant Black). For those wanting to know a little more about what this new adventure means for Jason and Helena DC has released a length synopsis for the series:
Jason Todd has left Gotham and Batman behind him. All he’s taking with him is his costume, his bike, and a metal briefcase containing two handguns (and lots of bullets).New Angelique seems like the perfect place for Red Hood to put down roots. There’s crime, vice, and corruption everywhere. When Jason discovers a super powered serial killer who is targeting the city’s police, he finds himself sucked into a terrible and bleak conspiracy with seemingly no end in sight. But Jason isn’t the only person on the scene. Following his trail is Helena Bertinelli a.k.a. Huntress. Is she here to stop him or help him? What will happen when the two black sheep of the Bat-Family start working together? Get ready for Red Hood like you’ve always wanted to see him.
